Kanonenbahnbrücke

The Kanonenbahnbrücke spans across the Alte Elbe river with its steel framework construction and multiple supporting pillars extending over the water.

During its operational period in the 19th century, this railway bridge facilitated the transportation of military equipment, particularly cannons, as indicated by its name.

The bridge represents a milestone in German engineering, demonstrating the technical capabilities and architectural methods used in railway infrastructure construction.

Visitors can observe the bridge structure from designated viewing areas along the riverside paths, which connect to local walking and cycling routes.

The bridge features distinct engineering elements from the industrial era, including riveted steel connections and geometric patterns in its support framework.
